Why You’ll Love the Tri-Cities:

Think boating, fishing, kayaking, and epic hikes along the Columbia River, paired with over 200 nearby vineyards. Families rave about our top-notch schools, safe streets, churches, arts, and events like the Water Follies hydroplane races.
While generally a conservative area with some of the reddest counties in the community, state liberal leaders often come from this area of Washington (former governor Jay Inslee hailed from Yakima). There is a healthy mix of opinion and viewpoint in the community.

It’s the biggest airport in Southeastern Washington, zipping you off to 11 nonstop hotspots like Seattle, LA, Denver, Phoenix, Minneapolis, Salt Lake and Vegas, with airlines including Alaska, Delta, United, American and Allegiant.
